I'm not into placebos. I've known them from different medications which I knew didn't work. But I got this homeopathic formula with 5-HTP and magnesium and it's called Mood Fix. It's actually working! I feel better. I actually feel happy, not just fine. I know a lot of people will say it's just a placebo, but I do disagree. I think that crystals and homeopathy do really help. I'm more of a new age hippy, but I know when something's working. I will check with my pdoc about it too. Maybe he will see something in the ingrediants that could make me manic. But for now, it's working great. I took it last night and today and it's working like a charm. I suggest it to anybody.
